A child is kidnapped. How long can it survive without water?
The mood in idyllic Nynäshamn is tense. It hasn't rained for months, the soil has dried out and the farmers are worried about their crops. Detective Lilly Hed is also suffering from the drought. What's more, her new case is more complicated than expected: a house is destroyed in an explosion and its occupants, a married couple and their six-year-old daughter Maja, are presumed dead under the rubble. But then a message arrives: Maja has been kidnapped. If the blackmailers' demands are not met, she will not be given anything to drink. Lilly's investigation becomes a race against time - and against an unscrupulous perpetrator who is always one step ahead.
